The truth of this picture resonates so deeply inside of me. I can’t help wondering why I am an powerless to execute what I imagine. What terrible curse is this?

I know I’m not alone in the ongoing battle of expressing my thoughts. There are many out there like me, people who are frustrated by their own inability. 

I don’t even know of a cure, except to keep writing, keep trying, keep pressing onward. And maybe one day, I will be able to write some sliver of what my mind creates.

Five elements of a story. I think these are just basic things that are needed to make a story worth reading/interesting. You can have just one or all five, but at least two of these are necessary to make me want to keep reading. I can like the characters all day long, but if they don’t want, need, fear, go through, or learn something, I won’t care.

Something to remember when writing feelings. Many times we use an incorrect word when dealing with certain intensities of feelings. That’s why some scenes don’t come across correctly to the reader. They can be overwhelming or underwhelming.
